Well, excuse me and my apologies for missing it when I went thru the FWS blocks.

For those who may be interested, here's the FWS thread for that block .... and you can get a look at it in many different fabric choices!

I agree with dunster on this one. I couldn't identify the block til I say that picture. Simple to recreate tho. I like it too.

On Jinny Beyer's Studio Newsletter, she shows this pattern and calls it "Box Quilt Pattern."

Do you really need a pattern? It is just 4 HST with white and one fabric and 4 HST with white and a second fabric and a square of white. I really like it and I might use 3.5 squares to make it.

Nancylee - You will find that for every physical quilt block design, there may be several names. These names depend on region and time frame. Whether this is a "box" block or "eccentric star" block is irrelevant if you are looking to recreate this particular block. Here are a few links to direction for both. You will see that despite the fact the name is different they are the same physical block except for the size. That may be the key in this case, however I do pretend to know that much detail on the history of block names.

Your block is very pretty and you should be able to redo it with these directions.

Many Many years ago it was called: Dutch Windmill and went with a pattern with the Little Dutch Girl and Boy. I do not know what they are calling it today.
